There are three foundations to all good communication. Shawn defines them as 1. Building emotional intelligence 2. Understanding workplace motivators
3. Recognizing and adapting to communication styles.

To build emotional intelligence, Shawn says we have to tap into 7 core emotions and 5 skills. The seven emotions are: 1) love 2) joy 3) hope 4) sadness 5) envy 6) anger and 7) fear. Of the seven, fear is a learned emotion. The other six are innate in humans.

The five skills are: 1) self-awareness 2) self-regulation 3) motivation 4) empathy and 5) social skills to bring people together.

Shawn doesn’t believe that some people are more adept at communication. Rather, some people are more naturally drawn to connect to others.
